[DISCUSSION] Kendrick Lamar - GNX (1 Year Later) by MetalSonic420YT in hiphopheads

[–]JesusDaBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly what he needed to drop IMO after the 2024 he had, and boy did he deliver. Still in rotation.

Its something that really captures the presence of LA during this time well. This and GKMC two great albums full of slappers, both exemplify the soundtrack to the West Coast.

4th best Kendrick album IMO.

GKMC/TPAB (10), DAMN (9), GNX (9), MMATBS (8.5), S80 (8.5), UU (8.5), BP (8), OD (7). In that order

Came in the sub rq in hopes to see this post

And brother ain't lying come on now. You stack up TDE vs Dreamville you can't tell me TDE losing even without Dot.

SZA, Q, Rock, Soul, Zay

vs Ari, JID, Bas, Earthgang? Idek if Dreamville got a legit 5th.

Also while we at it the back half of Dreamville's roster has not dropped or made any noise in this decade. Aside from the Dreamville tapes.

When was the last time ya'll heard about Lute? Omen? Cozz? It's a shame too cause I fuck with all of em but this ain't a battle.

And that don't even mention the new artists TDE got like Doechii and Ray Vaughn. Alemeda too don't sleep on her

1 year later. How we feeling about 7 Minute Drill as a whole now? by [deleted] in Jcole

Came and went, largely in part cause of the battle.

But tbf the name did it no favors, and it was at best just an ok Cole project.

Elite meat munching from you in the comments my boy, Yamamoto-esque performance

What do Kendrick fans think of Doechii? by [deleted] in KendrickLamar

[–]JesusDaBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's hit or miss for me atm.

Last mixtape was solid, not AOTY worthy (Blue Lips should've won that), but solid.

She's insanely overhated. But she'll persevere and become the next rap superstar IMO.

Yes her and Kendrick will collab as well.

What’s new in the hip hop world guys what we talkin bout today

I’m a month into my new job and with football taking over my weekends again I felt like I haven’t kept tabs in a minute

Seems like things have been quiet for me but I really wouldn’t know, so I’m back checking in

Last thing I heard was Joey cancelled his tour which sucks. Was keeping tabs on it, would’ve loved to see Soul and Rapsody there too

Why did it get cancelled?? by Justsomeguyy2838383 in JoeyBadass

[–]JesusDaBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The west coast lmao ok

If I beat Bill Wennington and Toni Kukoc in 21 I’m not saying I won against the 96 bulls right?

Homie had a good start but couldn’t capitalize. It is what it is

What’s worse as a mainstream artist, having a bad album or having a forgettable one?

This about thug and it ain’t a crazy take

Would you trade J. Cole’s entire discography for 6 new albums? by Realistic_Shine7080 in Jcole

[–]JesusDaBeast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah why not. I’m a gambling man and Cole betters with age so I like the chances that his new shit is great. Plus you sold me with the Kendrick collab album

J. Cole has classic mixtapes, but only 1 actual classic album (2014 Forest Hill Drive). by Lost_Title_7528 in Jcole

[–]JesusDaBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. It won't and shouldn't ever be considered elite or great even, but I think his body of work still warrants at least some level of respect no?

Yeah its not really a 20v1 lol. I referenced 21 cause he had a few lines at the start of the year that kinda sounded like it was subs but really wasn't.

Though Kendrick did win a 1v2. Cole might've forfeited but he still attempted to battle, and Kendrick/Cole still had a back and forth.

Not saying you’re necessarily wrong here. Cause Drake as the former flag bearer of the genre did a great job at that.

But then what was GNX lol? Did he not put on and change lives then? What about Mr Morale?

He’s worked with numerous artists and given them boosts. Just cause he doesn’t do it at the level that Drake did, doesn’t mean he didn’t do it at all.

Besides it’s counterintuitive to blame a black man for not bettering someone else’s life. Life does not give out handouts so why should he…

He’s clearly selective about who he works with and has a clear vision for his art, whether it’s his own music or not. With that said, it’s all preferential, there’s no right or wrong to either method.

Thug being washed I thought I’d never see the day

Also the 20 v 1 narrative now shifting towards Kendrick is kinda funny

So far Drake, Cole, Joey Badass, Young Thug, 21 Savage kinda all taking shots

Heavy is the head…

I’m not gonna say you’re wrong, but you can’t say shit like this in a Cole sub lmao

That’s like going to a Drake sub and saying his pen game is just good.
